I couldn't see it at midnight like I wanted, but I woke up extra early to watch it, and watching it in the dark really set a mood. It was strange, the video was like I imagined. I imagined the whole driving the car at night and everything. i was happy that there weren't any parts where you just had the main character explain everything. I loved the facial expressions of the characters, especially when there weren't any onions.

My cousin lives in downtown LA (near Koreatown). There's a fast-food place on the end of her block, and the scenes in this video look eerily familiar.

I liked it, but not over super happy with it. I enjoy it enough to watch it every so often over again, like I do with some of the other videos, but it went very well for what it is. Not sure why some people completely hate it, but I do like it. It is right that there is only so much you can do with a song that is that literal and specific.

Argh. Still won't load for me.

ETA: so I watched Albuquerque instead. That was awesome.

Decidedly average video. Look what Doogtoons did to the "Al's early childhood" interview, and compare it to this. Given the great quality of the visual jokes in the interview and the lack of them in the Drive-Thru video, I can't help but be disappointed.

I liked the "No public flossing" sign below the "Cash only/no credit cards" sign though.

Me either. I've been trying to watch it all day and getting that stupid error button all day.

That's weird. Are going from the Myspace home page or the link provided on weirdal.com?

alright, much like everyone here, i thought it was only ok. Some good gags (where they could be done) but overall...only "eh".

Still, it makes me wonder...should I go forward with my planned live action video for this song, or will i be just asking for undue comparissions to this already released animated version. I will say that YES some gags i was going to do were done (but they are lyrical gags) but my whole theme for thevideo is a bit different...similar concept, but better execution..

I will say...something someone mentioned about a direct R. Kelly parody image WILL be in mine...but I'm wondering if now I should even bother...

Still going ahead with my live action "Confessions Part III" tho...plus see below in my sig if you haven't seen my videos for "You're Pitiful"
